Filter by:The objective of this project is to develop and obtain preliminary data on a culturally grounded, trauma-informed alcohol intervention. The specific aims are to (1) use Community-Based Participatory Research methods to deepen partnerships with First Nation through capacity-building and knowledge sharing; (2) collect and apply qualitative data to develop a culturally grounded, trauma-informed alcohol intervention that is focused on historical trauma for use with a First Nation sample; and (3) conduct a pilot RCT study to examine acceptability, sustainability, and initial efficacy data of the intervention compared to waitlist control. This work is important, timely, and innovative. Addressing alcohol use has important implications for the health of Indigenous populations.
This is a randomised controlled trial designed to investigate the impact of a brief-cognitive task based intervention on intrusive memories, mental health symptoms and daily functioning, in women following an early pregnancy loss.
The investigators propose to examine a mismatch-based method of reconsolidation blockade for the treatment of psychological trauma in military personnel and Federal police officers. The standard reconsolidation blockade treatment (aka Reconsolidation Therapy) involves reactivating the trauma memory while under the influence of propranolol. The mismatch method of Reconsolidation Therapy will involve varying the contexts in which the weekly trauma memory retrieval will occur. This study will involve 10 visits (eligibility assessment, treatments, and follow-up visits) over a 6-month period for each participant. Treatments will be conducted once a week for a six-week period where the participant will take a dose of propranolol (or a placebo pill) 60 minutes prior to memory reactivation. The investigators hypothesize that reconsolidation blockade treatment will be as effective in treating PTSD among military personnel and Federal police officers, with the mismatch condition showing greater symptom improvement.
Study will look at a limited number of participants with various chronic symptoms. Investigating a new and novel form of hypnosis application called "Direct Autonomic Experience (DAX)" which is using combination of visualization, metaphor, post-hypnotic suggestion and anchoring. Purpose is to confirm that DAX generally appears to impact SUDS value and subjects report observed level of effect on short and longer term measurements. Most significantly, testing that DAX technique/action is reusable later if the measured SUDS value returns or increases.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a new self-help intervention designed to support individuals (anyone with a cervix) to access cervical cancer screening following the experience of sexual assault, by addressing psychological barriers identified by previous research, specifically shame, low self-efficacy and the re-traumatising nature of attending to sexual health after sexual trauma.
